Chapter 1248 Added to the List of Candidates!
The contract, though made of paper, had been infused with spiritual energy by Chen Xuan, making it harder than Chen Xuan's palm. With one swipe, Su Chenglong's face swelled on one side.
"You dare to hit me! I'll kill you!"
Su Chenglong was considered a man of considerable temper, but after encountering Chen Xuan, he had become increasingly irritable.
He snatched the contract and intended to tear it up to vent his anger.
"Stop!"
But at this moment, Su Tianhuang happened to glimpse a few words on the contract, his heart stirred, and he shouted.
"Huh? Clan Leader?"
Su Chenglong froze, stopping his actions.
"Quickly give it to me."
At this moment, Su Tianhuang had also clearly seen the words on the contract. Wasn't this the cooperation agreement?
Seeing Chen Xuan standing tall and confident, he revealed a hint of anticipation.
Su Chenglong, not understanding, mumbled, "Clan Leader, it's just a few pieces of paper. It's no big deal if I tear them up..."
Su Tianhuang became anxious and yelled, "Give it to me quickly!"
"Oh... oh... I'll give it to you now..."
Su Chenglong's expression changed.
He didn't understand why Su Tianhuang was so agitated. He quickly complied with Su Tianhuang's request and handed the contract over.
Su Tianhuang grabbed the contract, slowly opened it, and read it carefully.
A minute later, he looked at Chen Xuan in surprise, "Chen Xuan, did you bring this back?"
Chen Xuan smiled faintly, glanced at Su Chenglong, and then his gaze returned to Su Tianhuang, "If it wasn't me, would it be this idiot?"
"You dare to call me an idiot, I'll fight you to the death today!"
Su Chenglong, having been humiliated twice today, could no longer tolerate it. Clenching his fist, he swung a punch fiercely towards Chen Xuan's face.
But Chen Xuan stood there motionless, unafraid, only his gaze subtly sweeping across Su Tianhuang.
"I'm telling you, even the Clan Leader here can't save you today!"
"Chen Xuan!"
Su Yunxi exclaimed, her face full of worry.
At the critical moment!
When Su Chenglong's palm was only one centimeter away from Chen Xuan's face, a fist suddenly smashed into Su Chenglong's face, and with a bang, Su Chenglong flew back three meters.
The entire venue fell into silence!
Su Chenglong struggled to get up from the ground, bruised and battered, looking at the Clan Leader Su Tianhuang, who was rubbing his fist, in disbelief. "Clan Leader, what are you doing? Why did you hit me?"
The one who had just beaten Su Chenglong was Su Tianhuang himself!
Su Yunxi and the others were also stunned, not expecting Su Tianhuang to take action!
"Didn't I just state the family rules of the Kyoto Su family? Are you going to violate the family law in front of me?"
Su Tianhuang, radiating an imposing aura, rebuked coldly.
"I..."
Su Chenglong was speechless.
What he said was true, but in this context, it seemed extremely strange. Given his status, even if he had hit Chen Xuan, Su Tianhuang would have protected him, not Chen Xuan. He had even personally hit him for Chen Xuan's sake. What was going on?
Chen Xuan remained calm.
"Chen Xuan, did you really bring this contract back?" Su Tianhuang couldn't help but ask again.
He had already reviewed the contract. It bore the signature of the CEO of Xuantian Group, and it was all genuine.
This was a contract from Xuantian Group?
No wonder Su Tianhuang's attitude had made a complete 180-degree turn!
At this moment, Su Chenglong also noticed the contract in Su Tianhuang's hand. It was because Su Tianhuang had obtained the contract that his attitude had changed, but how did Chen Xuan get it? Good heavens, what was happening?
Chen Xuan said calmly, "I'm the one who got this contract. If you think it's useless, I'll tear it up right now."
As he spoke, Chen Xuan snatched the contract and reached out as if to tear it apart.
"Don't, don't, don't..."
Su Tianhuang looked panicked.
"Since the Clan Leader has spoken, I won't tear it up."
Chen Xuan stopped his action, his expression full of playful amusement.
Su Tianhuang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Clan Leader, I've gotten the contract back now. According to our agreement, shouldn't my Yunxi be added to the list of candidates for Clan Leader?"
Chen Xuan began to state his conditions. If it weren't for this reward, Chen Xuan wouldn't have bothered to retrieve the contract.
Upon hearing this, Su Chenglong hurriedly said, "Clan Leader, absolutely not!"
The Vermilion Bird lineage had just arrived in Kyoto, and someone was already being added to the list of Clan Leader candidates. What was the meaning of this?
"What do you mean?" Su Tianhuang looked at Su Chenglong.
Su Chenglong quickly said, "Clan Leader, this fellow must have used some Feng Shui or mystical arts to deceive the CEO of Xuanyun Group and obtained the contract."
"If the CEO of Xuanyun Group finds out he was deceived, he will definitely come looking for trouble. Please do not listen to this fellow, and do not let Su Yunxi be added to the list of Clan Leader candidates!"
Chen Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Clan Leader, it's up to your decision. I believe the Clan Leader will not be a person who goes back on his word."
Su Tianhuang frowned. Seeing Chen Xuan's confident demeanor, he said in a deep voice:
"I announce that Chen Xuan of the Vermilion Bird lineage has obtained the contract. From today onwards, Su Yunxi of the Vermilion Bird lineage will be added to the list of Clan Leader candidates and enjoy all the rights of a candidate!"
He didn't care how Chen Xuan obtained the contract; as long as he got it, that was enough!
Upon hearing this, Su Chenglong was devastated, as all his plans and hopes were shattered!
As for Su Yunxi and the others, they were naturally ecstatic!
"I will announce this matter tomorrow. I'll be leaving now!"
Su Tianhuang, holding the contract, turned and left impatiently.
With this contract, he had many matters to discuss with Xuantian Group and to enlist their help in overcoming the difficulties faced by the Kyoto Su family.
"Hmph, you think you're safe just because you got the contract and were added to the list of candidates? I'm telling you, even if you're on the list, you'll only be running in circles. You will never become the Clan Leader!"
Su Chenglong gritted his teeth, spat these words, and turned to leave.
Although he said this, Su Chenglong was still extremely envious.
He had worked his hardest and performed exceptionally to be added to the Kyoto Su family's candidate list. Yet, people from the Vermilion Bird lineage had joined the candidate list so easily, without any effort.
Furthermore, by joining the Kyoto Su family's candidate list, the Vermilion Bird lineage now possessed rights that ordinary Su family members could not have, and this was the most important part!
His heart burned with jealousy.
"Great!"
"I didn't expect that upon arriving in Kyoto, our Vermilion Bird lineage would have such good fortune. I must call Su Qian to tell him this good news later!"
"We must have a good celebration!"
Su Yunxi and the others cheered. They knew the significance of being added to the list of Clan Leader candidates was extraordinary.
Chen Xuan, however, frowned, the scene of Su Tianhuang taking action flashing in his mind.
Although Su Tianhuang had hidden it well, he could still sense that Su Tianhuang was definitely not an ordinary person. He was a martial arts master, and his strength was far superior to Su Chenglong's. Otherwise, Su Tianhuang's punch earlier would not have sent Su Chenglong flying.
